BACKGROUND Technical Field

The present invention relates to an integrated circuit (IC), and more particularly, to a system on chip (SoC) and a correction method of termination impedance element thereof.

Description of Related Art

As integrate circuit technicians know, a variety of electrical circuits may be integrated/formed on a chip. For the purpose of communicating (e.g., exchanging data) with some other external circuits/chips by the chip (IC), the chip may be provided with a pad. The core circuit of the chip may output data signals to an external communication channel via the pad, and/or the core circuit of the chip may receive data signals transmitted through the external communication channel via the pad. Responding to the needs for high frequency communication, the chip is usually provided with a termination impedance element for matching impedance with an external electrical element connected to the external communication channel.

Before a transmission is performed between the chip and the external electrical element, an initialization process is usually performed first to correct an impedance value of the termination impedance element, so that the termination impedance element is impedance matching with the external electrical element. In prior art, the method for correcting the termination impedance element of the integrated circuit requires a specialized external reference resistor. Here, a print circuit board (PCB) provided with a system on chip (SoC) and a dynamic random access memory (DRAM) chip is taken as an example. The SoC is electrically connected to the DRAM chip by the wire of the PCB. One (or more) first external reference resistor specialized for the DRAM chip is also disposed on the PCB. The impedance value of the termination impedance element in the DRAM chip may be corrected by using the specialized first external reference resistor. Similarly, one (or more) second external reference resistor specialized for the SoC is also disposed on the PCB. The impedance value of the termination impedance element in the SoC may be corrected by using the specialized second external reference resistor. “Correcting an impedance value of a termination impedance element in a chip by using a specialized (additional) external reference resistor” is a well-known technique, therefore which is not repeated herein. It's fairly known that, as a result of the fact that the external reference resistor is required for each chip (integrated circuit) on the PCB, not only the cost is increased, but the area of the PCB is also occupied thereby.

SUMMARY

The present invention is directed to provide a system on chip (SoC) and a correction method of a termination impedance element thereof, which is capable for saving the specialized external reference resistor for the SoC. By using a corrected termination impedance element inside a dynamic random access memory (DRAM), an impedance value of a first termination impedance element may be corrected by the SoC.

An embodiment of the present invention provides an SoC. The SoC includes a pad, a first termination impedance element, and a correction circuit. The pad is coupled to an external DRAM chip, where the external DRAM chip includes a corrected termination impedance element. The first termination impedance element is coupled to the pad. The correction circuit is coupled to a control terminal of the first termination impedance element, to control an impedance value of the first termination impedance element. During an initialization period, the correction circuit corrects the impedance value of the first termination impedance element by using the impedance value of the corrected termination impedance element.

Another embodiment of the present invention provides a correction method of termination impedance element of an SoC. The correction method of termination impedance element of the SoC includes the following steps: providing a first termination impedance element of the SoC coupled to a corrected termination impedance element in an external DRAM chip; and during an initialization period, correcting an impedance value of the first termination impedance element by a correction circuit using an impedance value of the corrected termination impedance element.

Based on the above, the SoC and the correction method of termination impedance element thereof provided in the embodiments of the present invention may correct the first termination impedance element inside the SoC by using the corrected termination impedance element inside the DRAM chip. Accordingly, the specialized external reference resistor for the SoC may be saved when correcting the first termination impedance element. Further, since the first termination impedance element of the SoC 100 is corrected by using the corrected termination impedance element inside the DRAM chip, the first termination impedance element of the SoC and the corrected termination impedance element of the DRAM chip depends more on each other and the impedances thereof are more match with each other.

The term “coupling/coupled” used in this specification (including claims) of the disclosure may refer to any direct or indirect connection means. For example, “a first device is coupled to (or connected to) a second device” should be interpreted as “the first device is directly connected to the second device” or “the first device is indirectly connected to the second device through other devices or connection means.”

Please refer to FIG. 1, FIG. 1 is a schematic circuit block diagram illustrating system on chip (SOC) 100 and dynamic random access memory (DRAM) chip 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention. In the embodiment of FIG. 1, DRAM chip 10 includes function circuit 11, correction circuit 12, termination impedance element 13, memory chip pad 14 and memory chip pad 15. A communication terminal of function circuit 11 may output data signal to communication channel 20 via memory chip pad 14, and/or function circuit 11 may receive data signal transmitted through communication channel 20 via memory chip pad 14. The communication channel 20 may be a wire of a print circuit board (PCB). A first terminal of termination impedance element 13 is couple to memory chip pad 14. A second terminal of termination impedance element 13 is coupled to first voltage rail line VDD1 in DRAM chip 10. Correction circuit 12 may correct an impedance value of termination impedance element 13 to perform an impedance matching process.

During an initialization period, termination impedance element 13 of DRAM chip 10 needs to be corrected. In the embodiment of FIG. 1, DRAM chip 10 is provided with one (or more) specialized external reference resistor 30. The external reference resistor 30 is also disposed on the PCB. The external reference resistor 30 is coupled between memory chip pad 15 and ground point GND. A first terminal and a second terminal of correction circuit 12 are respectively coupled to memory chip pad 15 and a control terminal of termination impedance element 13. According to an impedance value of the specialized external reference resistor 30, correction circuit 12 may correct the impedance value of termination impedance element 13 inside DRAM chip 10. “Correcting the impedance value of termination impedance element 13 in DRAM chip 10 by correction circuit 12 using the specialized (additional) external reference resistor 30” is a well-known technique, therefore which is not repeated herein. After the correction is completed, termination impedance element 13 may be referred as a “corrected termination impedance element”.

SoC 100 includes a function circuit 110, a correction circuit 120, a first termination impedance element 130 and a pad 140. The pad 140 is coupled to the memory chip pad 14 of the external DRAM chip 10 by the communication channel 20. A communication terminal of the function circuit 110 may receive data signal from the communication channel 20 via the pad 140, and/or the function circuit 110 may output data signal to the communication channel 20 via pad 140. A first terminal and a second terminal of the first termination impedance element 130 is respectively coupled to the pad 140 and second voltage rail line VSS2 of the SoC 100. After correcting the impedance value of the termination impedance element 13 in the DRAM chip 10 via the external reference resistor 30, then an impedance value of first termination impedance element 130 is corrected by using the corrected termination impedance element 13 of DRAM chip 10.

FIG. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a correction method of a termination impedance element of a SoC according to an embodiment of the present invention. Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, in step S210, a first termination impedance element 130 of the SoC 100 coupled to the corrected termination impedance element 13 of the external DRAM chip 10 is provided. During an initialization period, SoC 100 may wait DRAM chip 10 to perform an impedance matching process based on the external reference resistor 30, until the termination impedance element 13 of DRAM chip 10 is corrected and becomes corrected termination impedance element 13. Then, the correction circuit 120 of the SoC 100 may correct an impedance value of the first termination impedance element 130 of SoC 100 by using an impedance value of the corrected termination impedance element 13 (S220). Accordingly, SoC 100 does not require any specialized external reference resistor when correcting the first termination impedance element 130. Further, since the first termination impedance element 130 of SoC 100 is corrected by using the corrected termination impedance element 13 inside DRAM chip 10, the first termination impedance element 130 of SoC 100 and corrected termination impedance element 13 of DRAM chip 10 depends more on each other and the impedances thereof are more match with each other.

A voltage of the first voltage rail line VDD1 of DRAM chip 10 is different from a voltage of the second voltage rail line VSS2 of SoC 100. For example (but not limited to), the voltage of first voltage rail line VDD1 of DRAM chip 10 may be a system voltage (e.g., 1.2V, 1.5V or other voltage level). And the voltage of the second voltage rail line VSS2 of SoC 100 may be a ground voltage (e.g., 0V or other voltage level). In some embodiments, correction circuit 120 is further coupled to pad 140 of SoC 100 to measure first division voltage Vsep1 between the corrected termination impedance element 13 and the first termination impedance element 130.

A second input terminal of the voltage comparator 121 is coupled to reference voltage Vref1. A voltage level of the reference voltage Vref1 may be determined according to design requirements. The voltage comparator 121 may compare first division voltage Vsep1 with the reference voltage Vref1, then provide the comparison result to the control circuit 122. An input terminal of the control circuit 122 is coupled to an output terminal of the voltage comparator 121, so as to receive the comparison result. According to the comparison result, the control circuit 122 may correct the impedance value of the first termination impedance element 130.

For example (but not limited to), the impedance value of the first termination impedance element 130 may be increased when the first division voltage Vsep1 is lower than the reference voltage Vref1. The impedance value of the first termination impedance element 130 may be decreased when first division voltage Vsep1 is higher than the reference voltage Vref1.

During an initialization period, the correction circuit 520 may turn off the second termination impedance element 550 of the SoC 500 (S610). The second termination impedance element 550 is turned off, which means that second termination impedance element 550 is in an open state (an impedance value thereof may be regarded as infinite ideally). In step S220 of FIG. 6, the correction circuit 520 may correct the impedance value of the first termination impedance element 130 by using the impedance value of the corrected termination impedance element 13 during the initialization period.

In the embodiment of FIG. 7, an impedance value of the first reference impedance element 524 and an impedance value of the first termination impedance element 130 both are controlled correlatively. For example (but not limited to), a control terminal of the first reference impedance element 524 and a control terminal of the first termination impedance element 130 are together controlled by one control signal sent from the control circuit 122. During an initialization period, the correction circuit 522 may turn off the second termination impedance element 550. The control circuit 122 may correct the impedance value of the first termination impedance element 130 (and first reference impedance element 524) by using the impedance value of the corrected termination impedance element 13 during the initialization period. After correcting the impedance value of the first termination impedance element 130 (and first reference impedance element 524) is completed, the control circuit 122 may maintain the impedance configuration of the first termination impedance element 130 (and first reference impedance element 524) until the next initialization.

After the impedance correction of the DRAM chip 10 and the external reference resistor 30 is completed, SoC 500 may correct an impedance value of the first termination impedance element 130 by using data pin (e.g., DQ pin) of the DRAM chip 10 in step S830. After impedance correction of the first termination impedance element 130 is completed, SoC 500 may correct an impedance value of the second termination impedance element 550 by using an impedance value of the corrected termination impedance element 130 in step S840.
